Model Presley Gerber dies at rehabilitation facility aged 27

Presley Gerber, son of supermodel Cindy Crawford, died on Sunday at a rehabilitation centre in Los Angeles. He was 27. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner confirmed his death. An autopsy has not yet been completed, so the cause of death is still unknown.

Gerber worked as a professional model and was signed by IMG Models when he was 15. He was the older brother of model and actress Kaia Gerber. In 2019, he was arrested for driving under the influence in Beverly Hills and later received probation. He had also spoken publicly about his struggles with mental health.

His death has drawn attention to the difficulties that young people in the entertainment industry can face with mental health and substance use.
